Devil Bringer



The Devil Bringer is the "weapon" that takes the form of Nero's right arm. It's origins remain a mystery but it bestows upon Nero incredible power, including the ability to bend space and time to pull himself across distances instantly and pull enemies to Nero. Nero states, after receiving the Yamato, that "From that day forth, [his] arm changed and a voice echoed 'Power. Give me more power.'" It also gives him incredible strength, as he is able to stop Berial's (who is more than ten-times Nero's size) sword strike with his human arm. The story seems to focus some attention on the Devil Bringer, it's powers, and it's origins. It also seems to disturb Kyrie, the main female lead in DMC4, that Nero possesses the Devil Bringer, possibly because it is obviously of demonic origin, but after saving her from Sanctus, she comes to understand Nero and accept his arm. The arm allows Nero to absorb certain items, such as the Yamato, and gain their abilities. It is by doing this that Nero attain the Devil Trigger. Because he gains it by absorbing Yamato, the silluette demon behind him has a few similarities to Vergil's devil trigger, including a sheath attached to it's arm in a manner similar to Vergil's Devil Trigger state.
